About Me

I think a good way to understand me, is to see me drive.
I love to go fast. You should ask me about my speeding theory sometime....
If someone else is in the car, I tone things down a bit. You know, I want to keep the other person alive and generally sane. If I'm driving by myself, I crank the music up to ear-bleeding levels and go as fast as I can while laughing maniacally out the window.
I like to cause trouble. I love change and I love discord. Regular things bore me.
From my pictures, you probably think I'm some mopey...umm...person, but once you start talking to me, I'm very friendly and crazy...and...I dunno I just do...things.
I'm as introverted as you can be without being an actual hermit. I hide it pretty well if you manage to get a hold of me, it's just the getting a hold of me that's difficult.
I'm not the kind of person who just smiles out of nowhere, but I am often smiling do to the fact that I amuse the hell out of myself. Maybe that sounds kind of pretentious, but that's not the case. My brain just tickles my funny bone.
Oh, and my brother calls me The Big Evil.

My Interests

I'm a photography fiend. It has pretty much consumed my life the last couple of years. It seems that everything is geared towards it in one way or another.

A lot of my time is spent working on various arty type things of some kind or another. If there's one thing I'm not short on, it's ideas.

I enjoy hanging out with people, but I also enjoy being alone. It's difficult to balance out the two.

I'm a real bastard when it comes to playing miniature golf. I play for keeps.

I'm also a master of those stupid claw games. My apartment is filled with stuffed animals that I win out of those things. Those are just the leftovers from the ones I can't seem to give away.

I'd like to meet:

People who realize I'd make a great evil overlord of the earth.

Music:

Instead of listing a whole bunch of random bands...I thought I'd simplify this a bit. I have favorites in most genres of music, but I primarily listen to industrial & other electronic music.

Movies:

I love more movies than I could ever hope to list. Maybe one day when I'm at home and thinking about this I'll actually toss a few titles in here.

Television:

Television is an evil thing and I don't watch much of it. Really, I have better things to do especially considering the crap that it is rife with nowadays. If I DO watch tv, it's either the History Channel, The Learning Channel, or the Discovery Channel. Me like learning.

Books:

I go through books like water; and you need water to live, damnit.

Heroes:

Whoever invented "The Big Texas". That person is a genius.

Getting oldER

I'm not old.  I'm nowhere NEAR being old.  For the first time in my life though, I realize that I'm getting older. I used to think of my body more as transportation for my brain.  I nev...

What I read on DeviantArt this morning

Okay, I go to DeviantArt a LOT.  It's one of my daily checks in the morning.  The site is overwhelmingly filled with crap, but there are a few people on there who are REALLY good.  This morning though...

The luckiest unlucky man in the world

My luck is legendary.  It's also strange.  Yes, strange and legendary.  Someone (Eric) once told me that I'm the luckiest unlucky person in the world.  Looking back it's pretty tru...

Im in a surprisingly good mood today.

Realistically, I should be in a pretty bad mood today.  It's Monday after a long weekend.  On top of that, I work in a black hole entirely comprised of suck.  Still though, I'm feeling ...

Der Sturzhelm

So, I thought I'd give everyone a bit of background on what I've been up to lately since I've been so super-busy.  As most of you know, there are specific areas of my life (well, really one) that...

What fashionable Joes are wearing this season.

This is a prime example of what the fashionable Joe will be wearing this season. Unshaven face: shows his hard-working selfless attitude. His attention to duty is paramount. In no way implies that he...

I am a very strange artist.

No, really...I am.  You see...I don't take as many photos as I should.  Mostly because I'm very particular and am an insane perfectionist.  I will generally only take a set when I'm try...
